UPS (UPS, $108.92) meets earnings estimate; Amazon leads its revenue growth

United Parcel Service’s fourth-quarter earnings matched expectations.

The package delivery company reported adjusted earnings of $2.11 a share, in line with consensus estimate of analysts polled by FactSet. The figure is also higher from the year-ago quarter’s $1.94 a share.

Revenue rose year-over-year to $20.6 billion, just shy of analysts’ forecasts of $20.7 billion.

UPS indicated that its U.S. domestic business experienced +6.6% revenue growth, led by its largest customer Amazon. International revenue slipped -1.7% to $3.76 billion, slightly below analyst’ of expectations of $3.80 billion

Looking ahead, UPS expects 2020 full-year earnings per share in the range of between $7.76 and $8.06, compared to FactSet estimate of $8.03.  Its projection includes expected weakness on the industrial side of the U.S. and global economies as well as spending that will significantly increase UPS competitiveness and will be EPS accretive in 2021 (according to the company).

Shares of CRDO surged +11.90% on March 5, 2026, closing at $114.74 versus a prior close of $102.54. Primary catalyst: Strong Q3 fiscal 2026 earnings reported on March 2, with revenue of $407 million beating consensus estimates by more than $19 million and non-GAAP EPS of $1.07 surpassing forecasts by $0.29.
SPY is trading down approximately -1.30% in Friday premarket, slipping from the prior session's close of $681.31 to around $677–$678. The primary catalyst is a sharply negative February 2026 Nonfarm Payrolls report, which showed a decline of 92,000 jobs — a massive miss versus the consensus forecast of +50,000.
WAL shares dropped approximately 12% in early trading on March 6, 2026, from a prior close of ~$80.74 to roughly ~$71, marking one of the stock's sharpest single-session declines in recent months. The primary catalyst was a surprise announcement that Jefferies Financial Group declined to make a $126.4 million payment owed to Western Alliance Bank under a forbearance agreement tied to the LAM Trade Finance loan portfolio.
MRVL shares surged approximately +15% at the open on March 6, 2026, after closing at $75.68 the prior session. The primary catalyst was a strong Q4 fiscal 2026 earnings report released after the close on March 5, with non-GAAP EPS of $0.80 beating the $0.79 consensus estimate and revenue of $2.219 billion exceeding expectations.
Shares of Day One Biopharmaceuticals surged approximately +65.57% on March 6, 2026, rising from a prior close of $12.78 to an intraday price around $21.16. The primary catalyst driving the session's gains is acquisition and takeover speculation, with reports circulating that Day One may be a buyout target.
GAP shares fell approximately 13% in early trading on March 6, 2026, following the company's Q4 fiscal 2025 earnings report released after market close on March 5. Gap met Wall Street's Q4 estimates on both earnings per share and revenue, but fiscal 2026 guidance fell short of analyst expectations.
Shares of Red Cat Holdings surged approximately +22% in early Friday trading on March 6, 2026, building on a powerful week of momentum in defense drone stocks. The primary catalyst is escalating geopolitical conflict — U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran, which dramatically boosted investor appetite for domestic drone and defense technology companies.
The primary catalyst for the decline was the pricing of a secondary offering of roughly 9 million shares at about 22.25 dollars per share by Ingram Holdco, an affiliate of Platinum Equity, with all proceeds going to the selling shareholder and not to Ingram Micro itself. Investors often view such secondary offerings as short‑term bearish because they increase the freely tradable float and signal that a major holder is cashing out part of its stake, even if the company’s operations remain intact.
Rumble reported Q4 2025 revenue of about 27.1 million dollars, below consensus expectations near 29 million dollars and down roughly 10% year over year, confirming that top‑line momentum has stalled.

Tronox’s Q4 2025 non‑GAAP EPS came in at a loss of about 0.60 dollars, missing expectations by roughly 0.02 dollars, while revenue of around 730 million dollars grew about 8% year over year, showing volume resilience but weak earnings power.

At the intersection of these two mega-trends sits one of Tickeron's most strategically focused AI Trading Robots: the XAR, ITA, SOXL – AI Trading Agent (3 Tickers), 15min.
HIMS shares surged approximately +43.85% in premarket trading on Monday, March 9, 2026, rising from a prior close of $15.74 to around $22.80. Primary catalyst: Novo Nordisk officially ended its patent infringement lawsuit against Hims & Hers and announced a landmark partnership to distribute branded Wegovy through the Hims platform at $599/month.
XENE shares surged approximately +45.93% in premarket trading on March 9, 2026, one of the largest single-session moves in the company's history. The primary catalyst: Xenon announced positive topline Phase 3 X-TOLE2 results for its lead drug candidate azetukalner in focal onset seizures (FOS), meeting the primary endpoint with overwhelming statistical significance.
Shares of OLMA dropped approximately 41% in Monday's session, one of the steepest single-day declines in the company's history. The primary catalyst was Roche's Phase 3 persevERA trial failure — a late-stage study of giredestrant, a closely competing selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), which missed its primary endpoint of statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival.
RLMD shares surged approximately +40% at the open on March 9, 2026, rising from a prior close of $4.45 to approximately $6.23, driven by a major clinical trial readout. The primary catalyst was the announcement of 12-month interim data from the Phase 2 trial of NDV-01, Relmada's lead oncology candidate, in patients with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) — results that significantly exceeded historical benchmarks.
CRCL surged +8.66% on Monday, March 9, 2026, rising from a prior close of $101.94 to trade at $110.77 intraday. The primary catalyst is a landmark stablecoin milestone: Circle's USDC overtook Tether as the dominant stablecoin by transfer volume, accounting for approximately 70% of all stablecoin transfer activity as total stablecoin transfers hit $1.8 trillion in February.
Carnival Corporation (CCL) shares fell approximately -7.60% in Monday's session, dropping from a Friday close of $25.79 to around $23.83. The primary catalyst is a broad market sell-off driven by intensifying recession fears, with the S&P 500 and consumer discretionary names bearing the brunt of the pressure.
Shares of Bloom Energy (BE) are surging approximately +10.30% in Monday's session, rebounding sharply from a steep -15.50% selloff on Friday, March 6, 2026. Friday's decline was triggered by an Oracle-OpenAI data center project update that spooked energy infrastructure investors; Monday's move reflects aggressive dip-buying and a sentiment reset.
IGV has rallied about 8–9% in the last 6 trading days, while SOXX has dropped about 8%, giving software a +16.6 percentage‑point edge—the largest 6‑day software‑over‑semi outperformance ever.[barchart]​ This comes right after software lagged semis by almost −15 percentage points into late January, the widest gap since 2008, and as hedge‑fund short exposure to U.S. software and services hit a record ~3.8% of market cap.
Crude’s explosive war‑driven spike faded on March 9 because the market suddenly started to price less extreme, shorter‑lived supply risk and more policy intervention, not a multi‑month shortage. WTI, which had briefly traded above 115–120 dollars on Iran‑war headlines and Strait of Hormuz fears, slid back toward the high‑80s as traders digested G7 reserve‑release talk, Trump’s comments about a “brief” war, and the reality that prices had run far ahead of fundamentals.
